Programming language research is a pretty small and arbitrary space with regard to overall usage, isn't it?

Yes it is, but if "leading functional language" means "on the cutting edge of research into functional languages" then that might well be used to describe Haskell.

If leading refers to overall usage in industry, then sure, it's not really relevant.
